Hi,
We're using spamassassin-3.0.5-3.el4 with amavisd-new-2.4.1-1.el4.rf.
Since yesterday I'm receiving this message when downloading the SARE
rules:

Are these simply problems with the names?
Yes, but it's not really a problem.
Thanks for your answer. I only saw after I sent the mail that they were
only warnings and not errors. I'm a bit less worried now. I thought I
had a version mismatch or something like that.
Would it help if I shortened those names?
You could, or you could wait until SARE fixes the rules.
Still it seems to strange to arbitrarily limit the length of those names
to 22 characters.
Am I really the only one who is having this problem?
I haven't noticed it yet.
I had the same probllem with sa 3.000004
Anyhow, i solved it by changing the trusted ruleset entry
"SARE_HEADER_0" to "SARE_HEADER_X31" as advised on rulesemporium.com,
and all works fine now.

<<jdow>> They merely refer to the fact tha the report will slop over
"mail friendly" 80 character lines. The first thing I do when I update
a SpamAssassin is modify the tests to avoid the problems. I prefer more
descriptive names.
